This is a personal post. So if you have the patience to put up with it, I appreciate it. If not, we’ll be back to our regularly scheduled programming tomorrow. Today is my husband’s birthday.

On Thursday, I was wearing quite a simple but pretty strappy summer dress (nothing crazy, it’s a long dress), and I went down to my local gas station to get a couple sodas.

Waxing UnLyrical

The first home. we bought was in a city called Antioch, Calif. As young couples are wont to do with their newly-acquired nests, we spent a lot of time fixing it up. And when I say “we,&# I do mean both my husband and I. My better half put up with all sorts of crazy notions I had, such as re-upholstering a pull-out Queen bed from scratch (I’d never upholstered so much as a footstool before), gamely joined in when I decided the family room should be painted what I can only now describe
